Like the title says I am trying to reduce the size of my everyday makeup bag, just too much to root through every morning! I was wondering what are YOUR must-have products for everyday wear, and what good multi-use products are out there. I am especially interested in lip&cheek stains that won't clog my pores.

Primer- balances oil
Liquid concealer - double tasker if I mix into lotion for a tinted moisturizer, or just to put it where I need it.
Posietint- Cheek and lip tint
Basic pallette like naked basics- does common looks and black for eyeliner
Mascara

Well, I brought my own essentials with me today!
Concealer
Concealer brush (just because I apply it on the train & my hands get dirty-am I the only one? you can skip this)-right now the only shade I own that matches me is Vichy Dermablend stick concealer in 35.
Mascara (Clinique high impact)
Brow gel (Maybelline brow drama)
Brow pencil (s) & marker (Collistar, Essence,Kiko)
Eye brightening duo pencil (Kiko)
Liquid eyeliner, marker (Essence)
Dark brown eyeliner pencil (Kiko)
Blush (Nars-Gilda and Benefit- cha cha tint)
Lip balm (kiko)
100% Shea butter in a little pot
Q-tips
B
Small blush brush (Essence)
Illuminator (Revlon Skinlights in Bare Light, Nars pro prime radiance enhancing primer)
Powder (just bought an "HD" silica one by Kiko)
Tweezers
Lipstick (s) (Mac Rebel is today's choice)
Perfume samples
Spot treatment

All of this fits in a small makeup bag.

My favorite lip&cheek stain as previously listed is Cha Cha Tint by Benefit. A great multitasker is the humble brown pencil liner-so versatile! (you an deepen your lipstick with it too!)
Have lots of sample sizes in your bag. You could even depot some stuff into smaller containers.

That "B" wasn't meant to be anything.
